The Price We Pay for Love - Chapter Seventeen
Chapter Seventeen: Metal Heart
Angel was a smart... demon, at least relatively so, no thanks to his years living as a human. While simply Liam, he had been disinterested in anything his father deemed necessary and important, so he had only managed to retain the knowledge his tutors had drilled into his mind, those certain facts and skills that at some point simply become an innate part of a person's consciousness. He certainly didn't study, and he had never read for pleasure's sake. No, he had preferred to lose himself in other, more tangible diversions.
However, once he had been turned and especially after he regained his soul, learning had become a joy rather than a burden. With so many facets of life forbidden to him, Angel escaped from his misery through books, diving through and into knowledge as a way to forget who he was and, more accurately, what he was. Unlike his human counterparts, though, he didn't age, so, therefore, he was able to retain all the information he read and absorbed for as long as he survived.
